A Strange Case.
A Very unusual case was tried at the
,Dufferin county assizes held this week at
-Orangeville. The plaintiff, Richard
Cook, a laborer, of the township of
'Carrick, Bruce county, sues David
Nance, a wealthy farmer of Waterloo
*township, for 000 damages for the
seduction of hi&l daughter, Ellen Jane
Cook. Itappeajr. that in January 1879,
the plaintiff's d lighter went to keep
house for the 4iefendant, a -.supposed
widower with a grown up family. In
April of the foilwing yea t she became
a mother, and w en her father charged
Nance with beid her seducer. Vance
declared that 1hey were married. The
two lived as mai and wife until the 10th
,of April of this ear, five children being
-born during the r twelve years of seem-
ing married life. In the beginning of
the month meitioned Vance, who is
bordering on 70 was taken seriously ill
.and is now said o 'be on his \death bed.
He was not satis ed with the treatment
he was receivin in his sickness trom
Miss Cook, and quarrel ensued which
ended in Miss Cqok leaving the house,
.taking her five c ildren with her. She
immediately dis toted the feet to her
father that sh and Vance were not
married and then this action was com-
menced. It is alleged in the pleadings
that after the Plaintiff's daughter be-
-eame pregnant the fourth time the de-
fendant induced her to take drugs with
.4 view of procuring an abortion,and dam-
ages are claimed for her suffering • in
consequence. It is said that Vance is
willing to mayry Miss Cook on his
deathbed, but Lana prepared to make
what is considered a reasonable provis-
ion for her and her five children. The
action was not commenced in time for
the Waterloo or Wellington .Assiies,
and the venue hes been laid in Dufferin
in order that judgment may be secured
this spring, as this is one of those suits
on which the right of aotion dies with
the defendant It transpired at the
trial that the greater pset of the time
that the plaintiff's daughter and the de-
fendant were residing together as hus-
band and. wife the defendant's wife was
-still living, a fact of which Miss • Cook
swore she was ignorant. The defendant
-it now residing with one of his sons
near Clifford. The jury returned a ver-
dict foe $1,000 for the seduclion, and a
-verdict for $720 was returned in favor
of Miss Cook for six years' service.
Both Leaders Sick.
A dispatch frem Ottawa, dated May
1.3th, says: When the House met this
afternoon both leaders were absent, and
in each case froth the same cause, ill-
ness, Sir John was not well enough to
take part in the ' festivities at Govern-
ment house lastn ight. He was slightly
better,,however this morning, and left`
home proposing to attend to the duties
-of his departme t, and to sit at the
;11
Council a,nd in e Reuse. He went to
his office, and was summoned thence
shortly after his arrival to meet the
4Governor-Gener 1 with Sir John Thomp-
son and Mr. TUper at His Excellency's
room in the buil trigs. He attended the
,conference with the Governor, preshm-
ably on international business. After
ethe oonference Sir John was compelled,
.owing to w ea nese and sickness, to
hurry home. Tie Premier was not able
ft() drive to the Iouee afterwards, nor, it
is feared, will b sable to do so for some
,days. Among tbe members to -night the
.word is, "Sir Jehn is very ill." It it
'understood thattthe attack is similar to
-that which overtook the Premier at
'Kingston during the general election.
'On that occasion excitement and over-
work brought on, exhaustion,_ mental
and physical, from which it took the
Premier many days to recover. Mr.
Laurier, who was absent, and who has
:beet* absent ever since the passage of the
address in reply to the speech, was re-
ported to be not so well to -day. But
on enquiry it was found that the con-
trary is the case, Mr. Laurier has had
a complication of complaints, and he has
-.recovered from them all, his old enemy,
bronchitis, excePted. He is now labor-
ing with the renimants of bis indisposi-
tion, and expects to have -iaccomplished
a victory by the end of the week. Par-
liament will not see hine distil Monday
of next week at least.

" You are not going to stay down

"Not very late, Maria. I have to

led two double -deck carloads at $5.75 per cwt.
and four double -dee car loads at 35.60 per owt:
The general range o prices was from $4.75 to
$525 per cwt. Son e of the country buyers
complain that it is di cult to buy hogs from the
farmers, because tho e gentiemen have a notion
that there is an upw rd tendency in quotations.
This is an illusion. he merket is good now,
but likely to fallen a few weeks; and farmers
would study their en interest to sell now.
